This is a single-origin coffee from El Salvador.
The farm this coffee is grown on is called Tapantugusto, which means something along the lines of "full of clouds", in reference to the high altitude of the area, which is in Juayua in the Apaneca–Ilamatepec mountain range of the west region of El Salvador.
The farm has been managed & owned by Republica Cafetalera since 2007. They have maintained the variety as Bourbon as they believe in the unique quality that Bourbon brings.
